Tulsi Vivah Puja

About Tulsi Vivah Puja

Tulsi Vivah Puja is a sacred Hindu ceremony that symbolizes the ceremonial marriage of Tulsi Devi (Holy Basil) with Lord Vishnu in the form of Shaligram (or Lord Krishna in some family traditions). It is celebrated on Prabodhini Ekadashi or Dwadashi during the month of Kartik and marks the beginning of the traditional Hindu wedding season. Tulsi is regarded as a symbol of purity, devotion, and auspiciousness. The ceremonial wedding represents the union of devotion with the Divine and is performed with the same joy and rituals as a traditional Hindu wedding. During the ceremony, Tulsi is beautifully decorated as a bride, while Shaligram or Lord Krishna is adorned as the groom. The rituals include Ganesh Puja, Sankalp, Tulsi Pujan, Vivah Vidhi, Mangal Aarti, and Prasad distribution. Families perform Tulsi Vivah seeking blessings for peace, prosperity, family harmony, marital happiness, spiritual growth, and overall well-being. It is also an occasion to strengthen family traditions and pass cultural values to the younger generation. The puja is commonly performed in homes, temples, and community spaces where a Tulsi plant is available.
